COVID cases surge in Del Norte County By Diana Bosetti The Triplicate

An Omicron-fueled surge in positive COVID-19 cases swept through Del Norte County this past week - prompting boards, commissions and sports teams to revert to previous safety measures, and resulting in increased hospitalizations.

On Tuesday morning, Public Health Officer Dr. Aaron Stutz reported that there were 159 active cases, though that number increased by late afternoon when the Del Norte Public Health Authority website reported 182 active cases. Hospitalizations of people with symptoms at Sutter Coast Hospital also increased, from two to five.

However, no new deaths were reported and Stutz said the most recent surge could be a sign that the virus - though more contagious, may be losing its previous virulent status. “The general feeling is that we’ll have a large spike in new cases that will rapidly drop, hopefully, after that spike,” Stutz said, adding that hospitalizations

and case fatalities will rise, but not “near the same rate that we saw with the Delta variant.” On Tuesday morning, Stutz presented the latest update about COVID infections to the Del Norte County Board of Supervisors. He also said cases had increased by up to 300% compared to the week prior, and those infected were almost evenly split

between the non-vaccinated and “break through” cases of vaccinated individuals. “We’re hoping it won’t be enough to overwhelm hospitals,” Stutz said. “But unfortunately, it’s going to cause a lot of missed work and it’s going to cause increased visits to the emergency Please see COVID, Page A8

The Crescent City Harbor District board discusses a proposal to increase funding to the Del Norte County Visitors Center.

Harbor district tables vote to increase funding to visitor’s center By Diana Bosetti The Triplicate

A request from the Del Norte County Visitor’s Bureau for an additional $4,000 from the Crescent City Harbor District failed to receive enough votes that would have increased its marketing budget to $10,000, and was instead tabled. The 2-2 tie vote, with one commissioner having recused himself due to a financial conflict of interest, followed a report that showed a $100,000 increase in room tax revenue compared to the year prior. Cindy Vosburg, executive director of the visitor’s bureau, said they were seeking an increase in funding to capitalize on gains made in new visitor counts and transient occupancy taxes over the past year. “The more we push out story ideas to travel publications, travel bloggers, etc., the more recognition and media coverage we will receive,” Vosburg said. Lynette Braillard, of Lulish Design, delivered a presentation on behalf of the visitor’s bureau prior to the vote. “The Del Norte County room tax report at the end of quarter four, 2021, was up 413% over the previous quarter,” said Braillard. “It was also up 63% over

quarter four of 2018-2019, which was pre-pandemic.” Braillard added that the visitor’s bureau marketing campaigns also made strides, citing a 157% gain to 217,000 web page views and 69,000 “engagements” - which include comments, likes and shares on social media. “This current fiscal year, we are doing more influencer marketing,” Braillard said, adding that search engine optimization through a partnership with Visit California, as well as a targeted video campaign and software upgrade would also go live this year. According to Vosburg, the Del Norte County Board of Supervisors recently voted to increase its contribution by $30,000, for a total of $114,340, funds of which are allocated as $92,340 to the visitor bureau and $22,000 to run the visitor’s center. Crescent City also contributes $100,000, with $18,000 being used to pay in-kind utilities and rent, $72,000 to the visitor bureau and $11,000 to run the visitor center. “One of the things that I should point out is that we receive a benefit - via the TOT tax - because of Measure C,” said Commissioner Brian Please see VOTING, Page A8

Crescent City to move to virtual meetings By Diana Bosetti The Triplicate

The Crescent City Council passed a resolution that will take council and other city meetings to strictly teleconferencing formats

due to rising COVID numbers, at least for the next 30 days. During a special meeting on Jan. 7, the council voted to take all actions necessary to conduct meetings of all city boards, commissions and committees in accordance with

the Brown Act, and will revisit the resolution after 30 days. The provision expressly applies, but is not limited to the Planning Commission, successor agency of the Crescent City Redevelopment Agency, the housing authority and

Founders of lighthouse society honored Salute to U.S. Coast Guard AT TRIPLICATE.COM

all other standing committees of the city council. The City Council has the authority to vote whether to hold its meetings through the use of teleconference, per California Assembly Bill 3.

The annual Point-In-Time count that identifies how many homeless people are living in Del Norte County will start January 26. “This gives us an idea of how many people are living unsheltered and are temporarily sheltered, which affects funding,” said Roy Jackson, housing services manager for the Department of Health and Human Services. In an effort to draw as many people as possible, a take-out meal and other donations will be available to those who show up at Crescent City Recreation Hall, 1005 H Street, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. According to Jackson, the survey collects basic information and takes about five minutes to complete. Specifically, respondents will be asked where they slept the night prior on January 25. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development requires communities receiving federal funds from the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Grants program to count those experiencing homelessness. The electronic records also keep track of people who are living in emergency shelters and transitional housing. The unsheltered count is required every two years, though most communities perform the survey each year. “I’ve been talking with outreach workers, and they feel like the numbers are going to be higher this year,” Jackson said. According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness website, those surveyed will also be asked whether they are individually unsheltered, are part of a family unit and whether they or anyone with them are 24 years old or younger. Historically, the latter marker has been difficult to determine because families are reluctant to share that a minor under the age of 18 is with them. Youth living on the streets can also be reluctant to seek out shelters and other community resources. In an effort to reach those who don’t go to the recreation hall January 26, several organizations will canvas the county through Feb. 1 to survey as many people as possible. “This will include going to parks, campgrounds and homeless encampments,” Please see HOMELESS, Page A8

May 18th, 1953 - December 20th, 2021

Prison in 1995 in the Food Services Department. In 1999, David transferred to the Warehouse and spent the next 15 years there. In 2014, David retired from the Prison after 20 years of state service to care for his ailing wife. David was known to all to always be working more than one job. In 1997, he began working part-time at the Del Norte County Juvenile Hall, covering all shifts and holidays. With great sadness, David resigned from the Hall in November 2021 after 24 years of service due to his health. In the final days of life, David said that he would greatly miss all of his friends from the Hall and that he was sorry to leave them like this. David and Barbara were married in August of 1980 in Lake Tahoe, CA. They were married for a beautiful 35 years. Barbara passed away in 2015, and almost daily for many years, he would pick wildflowers and take them to her memorial site. Together they had three children, Megan, Mark, and Heather. Barbara already had a daughter named Vanessa, who David loved just as much as one of his own. David was blessed with seven grandchildren. He loved them all so much and would always make sure to be at every sports game, karate ceremony, dance recital, birthday party, or any other family event. David had a great passion for cycling. For decades, he would ride his bicycle to work every day that he could. In 2004, he entered in the Jefferson State Border Coast Bike Tour and cycled the 100-mile course. He even once ran a full marathon, competing in the 1993 California International Marathon in Sacramento. In October of 2019,

David Dwayne Shaffer, 69, passed away to spend eternity with his beautiful wife in Heaven on December 10, 2021, in Elk Grove, California. David had a hard, short battle with an aggressive cancer. David was born at the U.S. Army Hospital in Herlong, California on October 26, 1952, to Arthur and Jacqueline Shaffer. In 1971, at the age of 19, David joined the Marine Corps and was stationed at the Marine Corps Logistics Base in Barstow, CA. After two years of service as a warehouse worker in the Marines, he transferred to the California Army National Guard, where he served for 18 years. During those 18 years, he worked in Food Services and was a Military Police Officer. Most of his time in the National Guard was with the 870th Military Police Company, out of Placerville, CA, where he promoted to Sergeant. He deployed to Germany, South Korea, served in Desert Storm in 1991 and the LA Riots in 1992. While in Placerville, David met his wife, Barbara and they started a family of their own. In 1994, David retired from the Military with 20 years of service and moved his family to Crescent City, CA. David began working at Pelican Bay State

David traveled to Nepal, South Asia to serve on a missionary trip with the Foursquare Church. David enjoyed eating at the Chart Room Restaurant in Crescent City. His favorite meal there was the clam chowder. His neighbors, Jenny and Pat just happened to be the owners of the Chart Room. David always said they were some of the best people that he had ever known. David also enjoyed drinking Pepsi and collected Pepsi and Mickey Mouse memorabilia, and he never went a day without playing his favorite classic rock music, like Pink Floyd. David is preceded in death by his wife, Barbara, his parents, Arthur and Jacqueline, his stepfather, Allard and his brother, Douglas.

Gregory Armond Neish Sr., 68, of Sweet Home, OR, passed away unexpectedly of cardiac arrest on December 8, 2021. Greg was born August 27, 1953 in Crescent City, CA. He attended Redwood Elementary School and Del Norte High School. He was known as SunnyDay to those who listened to his radio broadcast on KPLY. He served in the Del Norte Chapter Order of DeMolay, rising in ranks to Master Councilor.

In 1972, Greg enlisted in the United States Navy, serving on the USS San Jose, stationed in the Philippines. Later in life, he served as a Del Norte County sheriff and a computer tech for various companies. Greg was also active in the Boy Scouts of America, both as a parent and an Assistant Scoutmaster prior to 2006. All of this paled in comparison to his true passion for fishing. There wasn’t a lake that Greg did not know about if it had fish. He had recently moved to Sweet Home, OR to be closer to Foster and Green Peter Lake, a convenient and frequent spot for him to drop a line (or several). When not found at a lake, Greg could often be found picking up treasures at a local garage sale or spending time with his children and grandchildren. Greg will be remembered for many reasons; the biggest being his willingness to help those who needed it

without consideration for the time or impact on his own life. Greg was preceded in death by his parents, Shirley Tregillis and Michael Neish. He is survived by his four children, Nicole Genaro (Jesse) of Hydesville, CA, Brandon Neish (Samantha) of Albany, OR, Tyler Neish (Maggie) of Portland, OR, and Megan Rothery (Matthew) of Hillsboro, OR; his five grandchildren - Emma and Sydnee Foley, Lucas and Emily Neish, Madison Rothery and soon-to-be baby Gordon Carleish; and his brother, David Erickson (Christina) of Crow, OR. A memorial will be held at Greg’s favorite fishing spot, Olallie Lake, on July 23rd, 2022. Friends are invited to join the family for a weekend of enjoying Greg’s favorite pastime in his final resting place. Further information regarding the memorial will be posted on Greg’s Facebook page.

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Letters to the Editor Keep it up

I enjoy receiving both The Triplicate and The Pilot. Even though some of the material is the same in both, there are enough differences between the two, focusing on either Del Norte County or Curry County, that makes having both delivered weekly, worth the price of two subscriptions. I’ve always been a fan and a believer in supporting local papers. The late, great, Herb Caen of the S.F. Chronicle had an occasional feature he called “The Picking of Nits,” where he would complain about insignificant problems that only he found annoying. Here’s mine. Between the two papers, The Triplicate seems to sometimes print the crossword puzzle in smaller print making it more difficult for us old folks. Plus the “Hocus Focus” panel last week almost required a magnifying glass. Other than that, I hope both papers keep printing the great local, national and world news as long as I’m around to enjoy my weekly delivery that makes Friday especially exciting for this old guy.

A new predator stalks the West

Guest columns

Wind-driven fire ran until the gusts died By Dave Marston The Marshall Fire that demolished more than 1,000 homes along the front range of Colorado two weeks ago was not unique. This particular kind of fire happened before, on April 17, 2018 - 115 miles due south of the Marshall Fire. The wildfire was simply called the MM 117 fire for mile marker 117 on Interstate 25 south of Colorado Springs, in El Paso County. Despite earning a federal disaster declaration, and scorching over 43,000 acres, it never rated a real name. Like the Marshall Fire, this grass fire came on fast and stopped almost as soon as the winds died. At the time, it was the fifth-largest in state history but 100 percent contained in 72 hours. It began when a motorist, their car dragging its muffler, sent sparks into the air when there was just 4 percent humidity and winds blowing up to 80 miles per hour. Sparks ignited the grass. Fire investigators on the scene said any motorist with an overheating engine could have sparked a blaze. The entire day it seemed all of Colorado was hammered by winds that grounded planes at Denver International, then grounded firefighting planes as well. Unable to reach homeowners by car, with the fire racing away, frantic officials resorted to pleas over Facebook message boards: “A deputy sheriff said he was driving at 35 mph near the fire Tuesday, April 17, 2018, and it was moving faster than he was,” reported Wildfire Today. The final tally was horrifying for a fire that lasted barely the length of a holiday weekend - 24 structures destroyed,

Dave Marston over 43,000 acres scorched, and “untold number of livestock,” mostly beef cattle killed, according to the Colorado Springs Gazette. Speed was a big part of the story. The fire raced due east and covered 20 miles in just a few hours. Along the way, It leaped over roads, torched houses and seemed impossible to stop. Yet when winds died and rains came, containment of the fire happened quickly. There is a stunning lesson to be learned from this grassland fire: We have little control over wind-whipped grasslands fires once they get going. All we can do is run.

By Pepper Trail The grizzly bear. The wolf. The cougar. These magnificent creatures, apex predators, how can we not admire them? People cross the world for the opportunity to see one in the wilds of Yellowstone or Alaska. There, we view them from a distance, free to indulge our awe in safety. It has been a long time since Americans lived in fear of wild beasts. But now that fear has returned. Fear felt not just in the woods, but also in cities and towns: Paradise, California; Talent, Oregon; and now in suburban Superior and Louisville in Colorado’s Boulder County. The dangerous predator we’re facing these days is wildfire, charging even out of grasslands to destroy our very homes. And no one is safe. As an ecologist, I know that predators are essential to the health of wildlife communities, keeping prey populations in check. They’re also a driving force in evolution, favoring the faster or stronger or smarter animals able to escape their attacks. Of course, civilization long ago freed us from the evolutionary pressure exerted by predators. But that freedom has come at a cost. When populations and ecosystems grow badly out of balance, there must come a correction. Humans and the environments we have created are not immune to this rule, and we must recognize that we have unleashed the firepredator through our own choices. What choices? On the global scale, we have released vast amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. This was done at first in ignorance, but for at least the past 30 years, it truly was a choice made in the face of increasingly desperate warnings. The resulting greenhouse effect has raised temperatures and decreased rain and snow-

Pepper Trail pack throughout the West, contributing to “fire weather” like the hurricane-force winds that shockingly bore down on the suburbs of Denver in the dead of winter. We also made land-management choices that strengthened the threat of fire. First, we behaved as if we could banish fire from the landscape, suppressing all wildland fires everywhere, and ending the use of prescribed fire in forests as a management tool. This led to a huge build-up of flammable fuels. Second, industrial-scale logging eliminated over 90% of fire-resistant old-growth forests and replaced them with highly flammable tree plantations. Finally, we vastly expanded our human footprint, building houses right where the fire-predator likes to roam, at the brink of forests and grasslands. Reconciling ourselves to the depredations of wildfire requires that we take the long view – the really long view. The fuel-choked forests resulting from our (mis)management need to burn, and they will burn. The best we can do is to preserve the old forests that remain and manage younger forests to increase their resilience to moderate-intensity fire. It could be a century or more before a new forestland equilibrium is reached, one with lower fuel loads, better adapted to the high fire-frequency climate we have created. Meanwhile, what about us? Colorado’s Marshall Fire proved that wildfire is the one predator

we can’t eliminate. Far from any forest, this was pushed through tinder-dry grasslands by howling winter winds and burned more than 1,000 suburban homes in a matter of hours. So, like any prey species, we must adapt as best we can. As individuals, we can create defensible space around our homes. We can get skilled at escaping wildfire by having evacuation plans ready. As a society, we can adopt sensible policies to limit sprawling development in fire-prone areas. Recent events prove that these include not just remote forestlands, but even grasslands near suburbs. Faced with predators, animals try to get into the center of the herd. We need to do the same, avoiding exposure to the fire-predator at the vulnerable edge. Finally, we can — we must — embark on an urgent global effort to end the burning of fossil fuels within the next few decades. If we do not, the West will face year-round fire weather, and a future at the mercy of fire. Yet there is reason for hope: the uniquely human capacity for rapid social and cultural evolution. Let’s harness that strength, and work toward the day when fire is a predator no more, but our powerful partner in the stewardship of the land.

DEAR ABBY By Abigail Van Buren ‘OTHER WOMAN’ REBUILDS HER LIFE AFTER AFFAIR FIZZLES DEAR ABBY: I’m a 38-year-old woman who used to be nice. Then I had a threeyear affair. Knowing I’m one of America’s bigger fools -- and for such a long time -- is infuriating, but I finally saw the light. The only person I think is a bigger fool than me is his wife. Some “highlights” of our romance: He gave me an STD during spring break, I found “Ally’s” phone number in his contact file, and I saw a blonde in a white convertible drop him off in front of his house at 9:15 in the morning, which, according to him, “never happened.” My eyes don’t lie. After I was struck by a car in a crosswalk, he never once called me to see how I was. After that, his teenage son followed me around town flipping me off and shouting obscenities at me. There’s more, but I’ll spare you. Please warn your readers to stay away from affairs. They demean you, your mate will lose trust in you, and the person you’re having the affair with -- can that person ever really be trusted? Won’t he cheat on you, too? This “wonderful” man is an elementary school teacher. (Think about what he is teaching your kids, folks!) Like I said, I used to be nice. I used to care and trust. No more! This man changed not only my entire life but also my family’s. Will I ever forgive MYSELF? P.S. I have spent thousands of dollars for counseling. It’s a lot of money, but I am worth it. -- FINALLY SAW THE LIGHT DEAR FINALLY: Love may be blind, but I’m pleased you finally saw the light. I’m also pleased that you realized you needed professional help to regain some self-esteem. Your bitterness jumps off the pages of your letter. If you work on that with your counselor, too, it will be money well spent. DEAR ABBY: I was widowed 10 years

ago after 34 years of marriage. My late husband’s sister, “Barbara,” who is also now a widow with no children or other family, considers me her sister and friend. Abby, I have NEVER felt close to her. We are very different, and neither my husband nor I had any real contact with her other than occasional holiday gatherings. Barbara is a domineering, self-pitying hypochondriac with no friends left she hasn’t alienated. We live fairly near each other, and I have the feeling since the loss of her husband three years ago that she’s expecting me to be her companion and caregiver going into her elder years. I’d slit my wrists first! I married my husband “until death do us part,” not his family. I don’t want to hurt Barbara’s feelings; I just want to enjoy my own senior years. How can I gently remove myself from Barbara’s game plan? -- DIDN’T SIGN UP FOR THIS DEAR DIDN’T SIGN UP: “Gently” remove yourself from Barbara’s game plan by being increasingly less available. She may be strong-willed and domineering, but you do NOT have to knuckle under to her wishes or be a dumping ground for her problems. If she asks to get together, be busy. If she’s depressed, suggest grief counseling, which has helped so many. If she suggests you help her going into her declining years, explain that won’t be possible because you plan to travel. You do not have to be cruel or heavy-handed about standing up for yourself. Just hang on to your sense of humor and keep your distance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court.

of the people. A Statement of Reasons of the proposed action as contemplated in the petition is as follows:Voters of the Crescent Fire Protection District Resolution No. 21-001 dated March 8 20212 approved the increase by less than 1 vote or $17.80 and adopted on July 12, 2021. YES votes 50.01% and NO votes 49.99%.* Currently we have high unemployment, high poverty, high taxes, high gas prices, and inflated food costs making it harder economically to exist.*While having fire protection is important, this tax was not thought out very well. This tax has no sunset clause. But it does have a cost of living increase built in. It also contains language to pay three (3) fire chiefs and one (1) captain all with six (6) figure incomes.* Many people did not receive their ballots including, unbelievably, Crescent City Harbor. The Harbor now has a lawsuit against the Fire District.* This was not passed by popular vote, but rather won by 1/4 of a vote equating to $17.80 after giving multi-family property owners weighted ballots! Instead of paying $74 per year per property, multi property owners get a reduced rate per property equaling $1,000 flat fee. In one instance that means a discount of over $8,130!* The Fire Protection District boats of going out on more calls, but the majority of those calls are not even fire related!* We have learned from the Citizen’s Oversight Committee that the $25 million dollar School Bond does not protect the taxpayer’s money. The Del Norte Unified School District is currently under investigation by an outside organization. Findings substantiate that the Oversight Committee has not operated in an INDEPENDENT and LEGAL capacity since it’s inception 12 years ago. Problems with Oversight Committees continue through the area. Name of Proponent: /s/ Linda Sutter. To be placed on the June 2022 ballot and repealed.

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Bridge Club donates to community organizations Each year, the Tri City Bridge club selects one or more local community organizations to receive its monetary donation. This year, club members voted to contribute to the following three groups: the Chetco Activity Center, $300, the local Food Bank, $200, and $100 to the local Humane Society. Tri City Bridge is the active duplicate

Stone, immediately after Braillard’s presentation. Measure C passed in 2018, and raised the TOT tax from 8% to 10%. “It is one of the main reasons we have seen an increase in the actual TOT taxes, even while it’s been an off year,” Stone added. “If you take a look at the numbers they have produced for us and the large amount of increase that is there, it is primarily because of what they have done.” Stone added that the TOT increase has brought the harbor district “close to what we need to pay” against a USDA $262,000 loan that was used to repair the harbor after the 2011 tsunami. “Thank you Brian, that put it really into perspec-

department and primary care visits.” As the numbers started to increase last week, various organizations voted to make temporary changes that would allow elected officials to attend meetings through teleconferencing. On Jan. 7, the Crescent City Council passed a resolution to allow elected members to attend meetings online for at least 30 days. The provision also applies to the planning commission, redevelopment agency, the housing authority and other standing committees of the city council. On January 4, the Crescent City Harbor Commission also voted to allow its members to log in for meetings from home. “Being a person that’s in this situation right now, I feel like we have conducted all of our business openly and the public has participated,” said Crescent City Councilor Blake Inscore. In a follow up inquiry from The Triplicate, City Manager Eric Wier said he couldn’t comment on whether city council or staff members had tested positive or were quarantined.

tive as to where we’re going to recover that money, and that was a question I had about what are we going to get for that $4,000,” said Commissioner and Chair Rick Shepherd. Shepherd then said he would entertain a motion to approve, then instead turned the matter over for public comment after those attending the meeting said they wished to speak. “Four thousand dollars may not be a lot of money to you, but every penny you spend should be prioritized,” said Crescent City resident Roger Gitlin, adding that a 40% increase in funding was excessive. County resident Annie Nehmer agreed, adding that she questioned whether the increase in room taxes correlated with the visitor bureau’s efforts. “Nothing was mentioned about how tons of tourists flocked to Del Norte County because the

rest of the state and areas were locked down and people were desperate to go somewhere,” Nehmer said. “Thank you very much, that’s a point well taken,” responded Shepherd. “I was gonna mention that. I see a lot of tourism was up in coastal towns and it was because people weren’t flying.” Commissioner Wes White then made a motion to approve the increase, which was seconded by Stone. However, Commissioners Shepherd and Gerhard Weber dissented, resulting in a tie vote. Commissioner Harry Adams recused himself because a business that he and his wife own Stella’s Adventures - was mentioned several times during the presentation. White then made a motion to table the request, which the commission approved.

“As stated at the meeting, it sounded like at least one member of the council and most likely two would not have been able to attend an in-person meeting on January 10,” he said. “However, with virtual meetings we expect to still have a full council.” On Jan. 10, all of the Crescent City councilors were able to attend the council meeting through teleconference. At Del Norte Unified, 39 students and six staff members were reported to be COVID-positive on January 11, with 26 of those cases occurring at Del Norte High School. About a week before that, the Humboldt-Del Norte League of the CIF voted 6-4 to eliminate all spectators from indoor winter sports until January 23, with Del Norte Unified casting one of the opposing votes. Sports not regulated by CIF, including the district’s middle schools, still allow spectators to attend indoor sporting events. As the week progressed, some of Del Norte Unified’s families posted comments on social media, which prompted the following response from the district on January 10: “It has come to our attention that, over the

weekend, misinformation has been spread through social media regarding school closures in Del Norte County. To be clear, there are no immediate plans to close schools, and there is also no emergency school board meeting this afternoon. District officials and leadership from the Del Norte Teachers’ Association did meet last Tuesday and did discuss contingency plans in the event that the state or local public health officer mandated school closures. However, neither the state nor local public health officials have indicated that they are considering closing any school in Del Norte at this time. The board, staff, and leadership of the district are committed to providing in-person learning opportunities for our students, to the fullest extent possible. For accurate information on school issues, including closures and board meetings, information will be posted at dnusd.org.” There are a total of 4,103 students and staff at Del Norte Unified. As of the January 11 reported COVID numbers, the positive cases comprise 1.10% of the student and staff school population.

More Obituaries found on page 2 & 3 Marie Christine Tedsen

Marie Christine Tedsen, 99, passed away, the day after her birthday, surrounded by her family at Sutter Coast Hospital, Crescent City, CA. on January 3, 2022. Marie was born in Vedsted, Denmark and emigrated to the US, shortly after WW-II. After graduating from school, her exemplary grades allowed her to apply for and to be accepted by an elite Nursing Preparatory Program in Germany. Once she completed this rigorous training, she served in various capacities and worked her way up through the hierarchy, achieving the appropriate credentials, to obtain Head Nurse status at the hospital she worked in. After the war, the economy and the countryside was so devastated, that she asked her Uncle, who was an American citizen and owned a large ranch, to sponsor her to be able to

come to the US. It took 3 years for the government to process her application and by the time she received approval, things were beginning to improve in Europe, if it wasn’t for her Uncle’s persistence, she would have stayed in Denmark. Since her nursing credentials were not recognized here in the States, after a short stint in an entry level capacity in nursing, she became a Governess. Marie had always loved children and she excelled in her new vocation. The family that she worked for were quite wealthy and she had an opportunity to travel and to take charge of running a substantial household. On one fateful day, her Uncle called her to accompany him up to Del Norte County to visit relatives and Marie met her husband of 73 years, Jack Tedsen. Shortly after their marriage, Jack joined with his brother, Paul to begin a partnership “Tedsen Bros. Ranch” and “The Boys” ran a very successful dairy next to his folk’s dairy at the end of Lower Lake Road. Marie was a home-maker and she loved making people feel at home. Her hospitality was legendary and she not only cooked for the hungry field hands, but her doors were always open for everyone and it was not uncommon for the little house to be

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Virtual Conservation Lecture hosted by Sequoia Park Zoo & Foundation The Sequoia Park Zoo Conservation Lecture Series is virtual for 2021/22 and the third virtual lecture is scheduled for Wednesday, January 19, at 6:45 p.m. Ken Ramirez will be joining from Karen Pryor Clicker Training to discuss Conservation Connection: Training to Save Wildlife. Zoo updates and information will begin at 6:45 p.m. with the lecture starting at 7 promptly. Attendees can ask questions to the speaker at the end of the presentation via the chat box on Zoom. Logging in through a free, registered Zoom account is required. The Zoom link will be available at www.SequoiaParkZoo.net and on the zoo’s social media. The lecture will not be recorded or available on Facebook, so attendees are encouraged to watch live on Zoom. The use of applied behavior analysis is an exciting and expanding direction for enhancing success in wildlife conservation. Key applications include the expanded use of husbandry training for conservation research, remote training projects, introduction of species to the wild, and other

uses of behavior knowledge to aid in managing and studying animals to contribute to conservation. These applications have been used in assisting with conservation efforts with condors, wolves, sea otters, dolphins, sea lions, polar bears, sea turtles, chimpanzees, elephants and many others. Join Ken for a peek into some unique and inspiring conservation projects. Ramirez is the executive vice-president and chief training officer of Karen Pryor Clicker Training where he oversees the vision, development, and implementation of training education programs for the organization. He also runs the KPCT National Training Center where he teaches courses and seminars year-round. Previously, Ken served as EVP of animal care and animal training at Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium, where he developed and supervised animal care and animal health programs, staff training and development as well as public presentation programs for more than 32,000 animals. He worked at Shedd

Aquarium for over 25 years. A 40+ year veteran of animal care and training, Ramirez is a biologist and animal behaviorist who has overseen or consulted on training projects for many zoological organizations worldwide. He began his training career working with guide dogs for the visually impaired and has maintained a close affiliation to pet training throughout his career. He hosted two successful seasons of the television series Talk to the Animals that compared pet training to the important work done with training and caring for animals in zoological facilities. He has also worked closely with several search and rescue dog organizations, service dog groups, as well as with bomb and narcotic dogs. Ramirez has been active in several professional organizations, including the International Marine Animal Trainer’s Association (IMATA), of which he is a past president. Ken has been actively involved in the creation of a certification process for animal trainers in zoological settings and

Lawsuit aims to protect Pacific Humpbacks from deadly fishing gear The Center for Biological Diversity sued the National Marine Fisheries Service today for failing to protect endangered Pacific humpback whales from deadly entanglements in sablefish pot gear off the coasts of California, Oregon and Washington. Today’s lawsuit challenges the federal permit given to the fishery in December to kill and injure endangered humpback whales without any changes to avoid harming whales. Fishing gear entanglements are a leading threat to endangered humpbacks that migrate along the West Coast, where 48,521 square nautical miles were designated as critical habitat in April. “These migrating whales shouldn’t have to dodge deadly commercial fishing gear, especially in national marine sanctuaries,” said Catherine Kilduff, a center attorney. “This is critical habitat for endangered humpbacks, but it’s full of long

It’s outrageous that the Fisheries Service rubber-stamped the status quo despite growing threats to these whales. Humpbacks are our magnificent, acrobatic neighbors, and we need to stop the increasing deaths in commercial fishing gear.” As climate change alters migration patterns and availability of food for whales, it’s harder for

endangered humpbacks to avoid commercial fishing gear. Until last month, the West Coast fisheries for the bottom-dwelling sablefish — also known as butterfish or black cod — had operated for five years without authorization to take whales under the Endangered Species Act and Marine Mammal Protection Act. According to Fisheries Service estimates, the

sablefish fishery on average kills or seriously injures about two humpback whales every year. The fishery uses 2-mile-long strings of 30 to 50 pots. Commercial fisheries in total entangle 25 humpback whales annually off the U.S. West Coast; more than half of the entanglements are not identified as being tied to a specific fishery. The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in North-

College of the Redwoods’ trustees approve new Education Master Plan College of the Redwoods trustees voted to approve a new Education Master Plan at their January meeting. The EMP is reviewed and updated by the college every five years to set organizational priorities that reflect the needs of students, employees, and the community. For this development cycle, the college challenged itself to look beyond their normal 5-year planning horizon and imagine initiatives and priorities that would endure for 10 years and beyond. While the planning process was informed by historical data, emphasis was given to real-time feedback from CR’s faculty, students, and community. Not only was the entire CR community invited to attend several EMP discussions at division meetings, all-faculty meetings and meetings of the Academic Senate, EMP Committee lead, Professor Chris Gaines, and an outside consultant also gathered input from

the community in fall 2020 through a series of 28 interviews. Erin Wall, president of CR’s Academic Senate, expressed appreciation for the inclusive nature of the process, stating, “The Senate appreciated the chance to engage faculty broadly across the district in reviewing and discussing the draft that came out at the end of the summer. We are all looking forward to moving forward under this new educational master plan.” The meetings produced the following themes that emerged with regard to the educational opportunities the college should pursue in the future to strengthen regional workforce and to better align with community needs: · Prioritize learning opportunities deeply rooted in Humboldt County’s unique natural, cultural, and economic ecosystem. · Expand hands-on, experiential, and project-based learning that embraces interdisciplinary

collaboration amongst faculty, students, and community partners. · Strengthen partnerships with local industry, government, nonprofits, and tribal communities to support the above activities – including internships, apprenticeships, and mentoring. · Prioritize activities that lead to living wage jobs in our community and continue to strengthen the HSU / CR partnership. “A brave community of College of the Redwoods dreamers embarked on a long collaborative and inclusive process to develop a new Education Master Plan that will guide our path forward,” said CR President Keith Flamer. “As president, I had the pleasure of working with several faculty who committed themselves to thoughtfully framing a critical plan that represents the shared goals of our community. I want to express my gratitude to the Education Master Plan Guiding Coalition,

ern California, focuses on several deficiencies in the Fisheries Service’s analyses of the sablefish fishery’s impact. These include outdated humpback whale stock assessments, the failure to recognize the smallest humpback population — that winters in Central America — as distinct, and the failure to consider the Fisheries Service’s own analyses of the growing whale entanglement threat. The Service found a 400% increase in humpback mortality and serious injury from human activities, including vessel strikes, since 2018 estimates. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Marine Mammal Protection Act, a landmark law that recognized the “great international significance” of marine mammals, including their esthetic, recreational and economic importance. The law prohibits harming marine mammals except under specific circumstances. Commercial fish-

eries that occasionally or frequently kill or seriously injure endangered marine mammals must have only a negligible impact on the species or stock to get an incidental take permit. To make fishing safer for whales and other imperiled animals, the Center proposed last month that the Fisheries Service require all fisheries that use pot gear to covert to new ropeless or “pop-up” gear within in the next five years. The petition requests that the agency prioritize the transition in national marine sanctuaries. Most trap and pot fisheries use static vertical lines that can wrap around whales’ mouths, fins or tails, depleting their energy and drowning them as they drag the heavy traps. Pop-up traps use lift bags or buoys on coiled ropes triggered by remote or time-release sensors to float the traps to the surface, eliminating those static entangling lines.

Glenna Virginia Cravey November 27, 1948 – November 29, 2021

“Dancing with the Angels” Glenna was born in and graduated high school from Cottage Grove, Oregon. After high school, her family moved to Bandon, Oregon where she married Robert Schellong and had two children, Kelly & David. Glenna worked many jobs but is remembered as being a favorite waitress at Gerry’s in Bandon. In 1978, Glenna moved to Crescent City, California, and married Charles Cravey, Sr. They owned the B.J. Thomas commercial fishing boat and she continued to work as a waitress and bartender at many local establishments. Many called her their favorite bartender because she was always kind, had a smile and made the best drinks in town! Glenna had a passion for children and Veterans. She always donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Wounded Warrior, and any other Veteran or First Responder cause. She volunteered for many years at VFW Post 1381 and was a Lifetime member of the Auxiliary. In past years, she also volunteered at the cat shelter. She loved her cat, Angel, and loved animals in general. There weren’t many days that you’d meet Glenna, when she wasn’t smiling. She absolutely loved country western music, cooking for Veterans, and was always the first one on the dance floor. Glenna loved to read. She would sometimes read a book a day and trade books with family and friends, but her lifelong love, was the Oakland Raiders. She attended many games and shared that love with her daughter and grandson. In her final days, she watched the Raiders win a game and some of her last words were, “Go Raiders!” Glenna was feisty, fun-loving and adored her family and friends. She loved her children more than life! Kelly & David feel like they were the lucky ones to have had a mother loved by so many. In her final days, she was surrounded by her daughter, son, brother, grandson, and dear friends as she battled cancer. She put up one hell of a fight and made us all shake our heads many times as she continued to tackle each day. She was so strong and had deep a connection to this life, but towards the end of her journey, she knew she was on her way to be with the Lord and her mom. Glenna is survived by her Daughter, Kelly Schellong (George), Son, David Schellong, Brothers Ron Holland (Cindy), and Stan Goodell (Sandy); Sisters Becky James, and Lori James; Daughterin-law, Jean Loosemore (Gerry); Grandchildren, Machelle Gardner (Matt), Erika Callegari (Fiero), Wade Mayes (Kelsey), Allen Schellong & Taylor Schellong; Great Grandchildren, Hannah, Trynity, Daelynn, AJ & Ryder; Special friend, Mike McGarity, and Aunts, Uncles, Nieces, Nephews, Cousins and many dear friends. She is preceded in death by her dad, Ray Goodell; Mother, Barbara James; Brothers Allen Goodell & Michael James. The family will have a graveside service on January 29, 2022 at 12 pm at IOOF Cemetery in Bandon, Oregon, followed by a luncheon at the Bandon VFW Hall. A “Larger than Life Celebration” will be held in Crescent City, California at a later date. The family requests donations in Glenna’s memory be made to VFW Post 1381, 810 H Street, Crescent City, California, 95531 or to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
